Parisian cynicism reared its head when a disgusted man at a station told me that 90 percent of the bikes don’t work. I wouldn’t say the defective bicycles were that frequent, but I learned an essential checklist: Are the tires inflated?

The rims, straight? Is the front basket intact? Cutting across the square fields in front of Les Invalides I glided by college students throwing Frisbees and old men playing pétanque. Finally, in the Sixth Arrondissement, it seemed I could toss an M & M in any direction and hit a world-class chocolatier. Christian Constant (37, rue d’Assas, 33-1-53-63-15-15) excels at such spicy and floral notes as saffron and ylang-ylang. The line snaking out of Pierre Hermé’s slim boutique (72, rue Bonaparte, 33-1-43-54-47-77; www.pierreherme.com) told me I was doing the right thing. “Un Plénitude, s’il vous plait.” Food style.

Both of my boys love Cut the Rope so for my son's third birthday he decided he wanted a cake with Om Nom - his favorite character, of course! There are many beautiful and amazing cakes out there that have been covered/decorated with fondant. I am sort of a fondant hater. Mainly because it tastes horrible! I have bought fondant and made (marshmallow) fondant from scratch with the same outcome. The cake tastes great but the fondant has to be picked off and thrown away. Now, if you don't have kids you might not think this is a big deal but when they don't like the taste of fondant and you have to take it off of their cake and all the frosting goes with it.......well, there are many, many unwanted tears to deal with!

So, in an attempt to satisfy my little birthday boy I tried my best to smooth out buttercream frosting instead of using fondant. To make this cake you will need the following: Fastest Way to Chill a Drink | Upgrade Your Life. The heat of the summer is upon us. And I'm sure I'm not the only one asking: What's the fastest way to chill a drink? Fridge Depending on the starting temperature, cooling drinks in the fridge takes anywhere from 45 minutes to 2 hours. Not nearly fast enough when you're parched. Freezer To speed the process, you can wrap a wet paper towel around them and stick them in the freezer. That's faster — like 20 minutes. But 20 minutes is still too long. Ice water Putting your drinks in a bath of ice water chills them even faster than a freezer. To make sure, I started with cans of soda that had been sitting outside — about 78 degrees. The Solution I had read that putting salt in the ice water can chill your drinks even faster.

Still, I had to put this to the test. Nature & Environment. Cooking/Recipes. PASTA. Recipes.

They are probably the best Oreo cakes I have ever tried. A lot of cake's that I have experimented with before are like a vanilla cake with bits of Oreo in them, which didn't really give them enough Oreo flavor. But these were a lot better. I used a dark chocolate fudge cake mix instead of just a regular chocolate cake mix, which went really well with the cookies and gave the cakes just a little more flavor. So, in this recipe there is Oreo's in the cake, in the frosting, and at the bottom is a Oreo surprise. That's right, you put a whole Oreo at the bottom of the cake.

Ingredients 1 package Oreo Cookies, regular size 1 package Mini Oreo Cookies, for decoration (optional) 1 package chocolate cake mix (mix according to directions on box) 8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature 1/2 cup butter (1 stick), room temperature 3 3/4 cups powdered sugar 1 teaspoon vanilla extract cupcake liners Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

The Stupid Things You Do in the Kitchen (and How to Fix Them) Love cooking or hate it, much of your time in the kitchen is likely wasted by easily correctable mistakes you probably don't even know you're making. You waste time prepping ingredients, use your knives incorrectly, mix and match the wrong utensils, and throw out food that's still good—and those are just a few of the stupid things you do in the kitchen. Here's how to fix them. P Stupid Thing #1: You Spend Too Much Time Prepping IngredientsP Few people enjoy the tedium of prepping ingredients.

Sometimes it's a process that can take time, but there are generally simple techniques that eliminate one of the most time-consuming kitchen tasks. Many of these methods are specific to the ingredients themselves, but an organized approach can make a difference across the board. Say you're cutting a bunch of carrots into sticks; it doesn't make sense to trim, peel, and slice each one individually.

Liquorice candies in different colours in Jyväskylä, Finland M&Ms, chocolate with a colored sugar shell. Confectionery, or the making of confections, are food items that are rich in sugar.

Confectionery is divided into two broad and somewhat overlapping categories, bakers' confections and sugar confections.[1] Bakers' confectionery includes principally sweet pastries, cakes, and similar baked goods. Sugar confectionery includes sweets, candied nuts, chocolates, chewing gum, sweetmeats, pastillage, and other confections that are made primarily of sugar. Confections include sweet foods, sweetmeats, digestive aids that are sweet, elaborate creations, and something amusing and frivolous.[2] Confectionery refers to the art of creating sugar-based dessert forms, or subtleties (subtlety or sotelty). From the Old French confection, origin of Latin confectio(n-), from conficere, to "put together".[3][4] Modern usage may include substances rich in artificial sweeteners as well.

My blog is getting to the age where there are an awful lot of wonderful recipes buried deep in the annals of sub par photography and rushed recipe write-ups. Because we eat with our eyes, it is hard to imagine why anyone would attempt to make this recipe after viewing the first photo here. But they have. And everyone who has tried this meal loves it every bit as much as I do. It is a shame how many times I’ve made this recipe since initially posting that recipe without taking another photograph. Admittedly, though, I find burritos to be tough things to stage for pictures. The Omnivore generally covers these burritos with cheddar cheese while they bake in the oven and eats them with a fork and knife.

Baked Zucchini Chips. Well I said last week that I'd probably be up to my old tricks by now. But much to my own surprise, I decided to try another 'healthy' recipe I've been thinking about - zucchini chips! If you ever look at the sidebar of my blog that lists 'popular recipes' you will see that Apple Chips are number one. They have been for a while now, but the funny part is that they are number one by a landslide. Mr. Vittles occasionally looks over my shoulder while I'm reviewing my blog's stats, and he is always so amused by the fact that the Apple Chips completely dwarf every other post.

This fact is absurdly evident by a bar graph that shows the top 10 posts' all-time number of views... basically one long bar, with a whole bunch of short ones beneath it. Up until this week (when Cheesy Bacon Oven Chips suddenly blew up on Pinterest) the Apple Chips had four times more views than the 2nd most popular post. So... in light of people's apparent interest in this recipe, Mr. Original Recipe. Zucchini Ribbon Salad. Recipes & Entertaining. Perfect Iced Coffee. Iced coffee is my life. When I wake up, often around the time party animals on the west coast are just heading home, I start each day not with a cup of freshly brewed hot java, but with a tall, blessed glass of creamy iced coffee in a glass. I’ve been an iced coffee freakazoid for years and years. To say I couldn’t live without it is an understatement. It gives me the tools I need to cope. Iced coffee is a complicated thing, and there are many different approaches.

One would think that one could merely pour brewed coffee into a glass full of ice and call it a day…but I find that method extremely flawed. First, no matter how packed with ice the glass is, once the hot coffee hits, some of the ice is bound to melt. 1. Given the previous set of facts, one would assume that the logical solution would be to brew hot coffee, then transfer the brew to the fridge, allow it to cool, and use it to make iced coffee from there.

I start with a big ol’ container. Rip open a pound of ground coffee. South Beach Diet Recipes and Healthy Recipes - Learn About South Beach Diet Recipes and Healthy Recipes. Sign InRegister Now!

It sounds simple … and it is! People do complicate it however, and admittedly there are many ways to analyze the food cost or look at it, depending on what you are trying to achieve. But lets just look at “food cost”. Food cost is the cost of edible product sold in a foodservice establishment. If you can’t eat it, then it should not be included in your food cost! Once you know your food cost you can go on to using it to ensure you are making a profit and not just busy being busy. The food cost on a batch recipe for example, coleslaw, includes everything edible that went into it. In my experience, getting the batch recipes is the biggest hurdle for operators to overcome. Another important aspect of recipe costing, is knowing the true yield of a batch or ingredient. Once you know the cost of your products and have your batch recipes costed you can move on to costing your plate recipes.

I worked with a customer who forgot to include creamers in their cost calculations for coffee. Al rescate del pan >> Gastronotas de Capel. El domingo comenzaron horneando 80 kilos; el lunes saltaron a 120 y el martes llegaron a 200 o algo más. Me consta que en varios momentos del día las colas están alcanzando hasta la fuente de al lado. Y eso para comprar una simple barra de pan. A pesar de que venden todo lo que hacen no quieren ni pueden elaborar más cantidad. Su objetivo no es vender -- curiosa paradoja -- sino contribuir a desarrollar la cultura del pan. Lo que sus promotores sí han logrado con creces es llamar la atención. El fenómeno “The Loaf in a Box” (El pan en una caja) (www.Theloaf.es) ha hecho mella en las redes sociales y se ha comentado en todos los medios de la ciudad. Detrás de la barra el risueño Ibán Yarza, periodista y panadero bilbaíno obsesionado con el pan. Y a su lado la gran estrella, el famoso panadero de origen australiano Dan Lepard, autor de la obra “Hecho a mano”.

Lepard tiene mi libro (El Pan nuestro) y yo tenía el suyo pero sin firmar. Iban Yarza hablaba deprisa, entusiasmado. They told me I could be anything... Tu B’Shvat Resources « Jewish Inspiration.
